ST2 model of water
ST2 is a model for simulations of water [1]. The ST2 model is based on the earlier Ben-Naim and Stillinger model, known as the BNS model.
Parameters
Temperature of maximum density
See: a table of water TMD values.
Liquid-liquid critical point
The ST2 model has a liquid-liquid transition [2]. Liu, Panagiotopoulos, and Debenedetti [3] have located the critical point of the liquid-liquid transition of the ST2 model [4] to be at a temperature of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle T_c = 237 \pm 4 ~\mathrm{K}} , a density of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \rho_c = 0.99 \pm 0.02 ~\mathrm{g/cm}^3} and a pressure of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle p_c = 167 \pm 24 ~\mathrm{MPa}} . This finding is supported in the work of Sciortino, Saika-Voivod and Poole [5].
